It is one of the biggest basketball rivalries in the region. Cibona host Zadar in the 11th round of ABA League.
ABA League 11th round, Sunday, 27.11.2016:
Where? Dražen Petrović Hall, Zagreb
When? 21:00
Story of the game: Their clash will always be a special game. Cibona and Zadar have been fighting many basketball battles throughout the years, while they are about to meet again, in Dražen Petrović Hall, Zagreb.
Cibona are in a better situation, simply because they are currently a better placed team on the standings, while on top of that the Wolves will play this game at home, in front of their fans. But, it is important to mention that Cibona suffered three consecutive defeats in ABA League, so they would need to make extra effort to break the barrier of a losing streak.
Zadar have also suffered some tough defeats lately. They only have 1 win out of the previous 4 rounds, while they also stayed without head coach during the last week as Ante Matulović resigned from that position. But, when it comes to big derby against Cibona, be sure that the Zadar crew will do everything to overcome all problems in order to score a sweet win.
Match-up in focus: Get ready for a duel between the top scorer of the season Ivan Marinković (Zadar) and the 2nd top scorer of the season Ante Žižić (Cibona). No need to tell you that they play at the same position...
Head to head in regional league: In total 13:15; In Zagreb 10:4.
